Hook point for document generation: TemplateVariableProcessor could not be resolved

Hi there,

I'm trying to manipulate some form values before generating a PDF with the Alfresco Activiti Suite 1.4.1 "document generation task". I'm using the latest documentation: https://docs.alfresco.com/activiti/docs/dev-guide/1.4.0/#templateVariableProcessor
Unfortunately, I can't compile the Java class example because the
TemplateVariableProcessor
could not be implemented. This is because the of the import
com.activiti.api.docgen.TemplateVariableProcessor
. The
com.activiti.api
package could not be resolved!
As mentioned in the documentation above, my POM contains the following:


  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.activiti</groupId>
    <artifactId>activiti-app-logic</artifactId>
    <version>1.4.1</version>
  </dependency>



Maybe at this point I make already a mistake? Because even based on the documentation https://docs.alfresco.com/activiti/docs/dev-guide/1.4.0/#_custom_logic I can build against a particular suite version
${suite.version}
. I assume it's the Alfresco Activiti Suite version, right? So I'm using the latest one which is 1.4.1. But this version could not be resolved. Another strange thing is, that I can't find the package
com.activiti
on https://maven.alfresco.com/nexus. Only
org.activiti
is available. But if I use "org" instead "com" it doesn't work either. For
org.activiti
I've also tried the version 6.0.0.Beta2 (http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.activiti/activiti-app-logic).

How do I get the example working?
I appreciate any advice!

BR,
Mario


For completeness my Java code:

package com.activiti.extension.bean;
import org.activiti.engine.delegate.DelegateExecution;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import com.activiti.api.docgen.TemplateVariableProcessor;

@Component
public class CustomTemplateProcessor implements TemplateVariableProcessor {
    private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(CustomTemplateProcessor.class);
    public Object process(DelegateExecution execution, String variableName, Object value) {

        logger.info("processing <"+variableName+"> with value <"+value+">");
        return value.toString() + "___" + "HELLO_WORLD";
    }
}
